The New Hampshire Veterans Home’s annual Family Fun Day will take place on Saturday afternoon on the grounds of the Home on Winter Street in Tilton – rain or shine.
A bouncy house, balloon artist, horse rides and baby animals will be among a long list of child-friendly activities. There will be a karate demonstration, many games and lots of food – hamburgers, hot dogs, popcorn, snow cones and cookies, and more.
The fun will take place around the home’s outdoor pavilion – or move inside to town hall in the event of rain. Activities are scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. and end at 4 p.m.
Tickets are five for $1 and will be sold at the door. All proceeds will go to the home’s Resident Benefit Fund.
This community event is open to all families and children in the local community, and the children, grandchildren and their friends of the home’s residents and staff.
